“What Do I Want To Do When I Grow Up?” In This Issue Exploring Networking Opportunities (click on title to go to corresponding section) By Katie Horvath As I near the end of my doctoral dissertation I still have two burning questions: 1) what can I do after I finish my PhD and 2) what do I want to do after I finish my Upcoming TIBBS PhD? We are all aware of the traditional academic career path: you complete 1 events (p. 2) or 2 academic post-docs and acquire enough publica- tions to become grant competitive, ideally culminating in a junior faculty position at a research institution. Pioneering Postdoc However, I find following a career outside of academia appealing. Programs (p. 3) I began investigating non-academic opportunities at the annual NIEHS Biomedical Career Fair last spring and was privileged to hear Dave Jensen, a moderator on Where on Campus the Science Careers online forum, speak. Dave be- lieves that you should approach a job search like you Katie Horvath is a 4th is That??

November Semi- Networking has always intimidated me. The thought of approaching random nars (p. 4) strangers with my prepared “elevator speech,” makes me break out into a sweat. Nevertheless, I decided to take Dave’s advice and give networking the old college (or grad school) try. My sister Monica, a bioinformatics PhD who succeeded in landing a “real job,” suggested that I investigate the RTP chapter of the Health- PhD Comic Strip care Businesswomen’s Association (HBA). I attended one of their “speed- (p. 4) networking” events. What a phenomenal experience! Like “speed-dating” you meet with multiple professionals to exchange business cards and determine if the other person is a useful professional contact. When the timer rings, you meet November Campus with a new person, allowing you to make multiple connections in one evening. I Events and Work- made several contacts at the speed networking event, including a toxicologist shops (p. 8) who lives in France.

People who are helped through networking are usually willing to pay it forward. Cheap Things to do Although I cannot say that meeting new people while networking no longer puts around Campus in butterflies in my stomach, I am gaining confidence as I practice. Through net- November (p. 13) working, I have discovered that the previously scary world outside of academia has become a little smaller and is actually filled with friendly, talented people. I hope that as I progress further in my career that I will be able to pay everyone’s advice forward and help someone else down the road.

There are many unique postdoc programs that train fellows in a variety of in-demand skills and these training opportunities are often shorter and more structured than the traditional academic postdoc. They teach a specific skill set and can be a fast track to a “real job” afterwards.

Each month in the TIBBS Times we’ll high- light a different fellowship opportunity. This month’s spotlight is on Genentech’s prestig- ious industry postdoc program. Click here for past contest photos and a list of winners SAGE Bionetworks Postdoc Training in Bioinformatics

SAGE bionetworks, a Seattle based Medical Research Organization, adminis- ters a National Cancer Institute-funded, 2-year postdoctoral training program for recent PhD graduates with experience in bioinformatics or cancer biology. Fellows will have an opportunity to both contribute data to this platform from their host institution and receive advanced training on analysis methods. Dur- ing the second year the fellows will advise and teach the approaches to other cancer researchers.

Kremerata Baltica with Gordon Kremer, violin/leader—7:30pm Of all the world's leading violinists, Gidon Kremer is one of the most original and compelling. With more than 100 albums, Krmer has an unusually extensive repertoire that includes standard classical and ro- mantic works, music by 20th-century masters and contemporary composers of Eastern Europe and Rus- sia. No other soloist of his stature has done as much for living composers in the past 30 years. Grammy- winning ensemble Kremerata Baltica is the realization of Kremer's belief that music can overcome all barriers of language and culture. Performing in the world's greatest halls, these 27 young musicians were handpicked by Kremer from among the most exceptional talent of the Baltic states, helping to cre- ate cultural bridges among three neighboring countries (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) with strikingly different identities.
